Let's just say that not all kits have been right. What has it been, 3
years since the first ones? Plenty of people had wrong/missing/bogus
parts. Maybe it has all been straightened out in current kits. With all
of the promise that the TIICO kit had for committed Vanagon owners, I
hope that it is straightened out. Not a street legal product for sale in
California though. There are nice Vanagons parked now after getting
TIICO engines when the company was claiming they could get through smog
check. These owners are in limbo unless TIICO gets CARB approval for the
kit and their time and money are gone. Without passing a smog check they
can't get current tags. Without current tags you can't even park on your
own driveway in many areas.
